“I think they gonna clean Jay up. The sport of boxing is going to clean him up and he’s going to find out it’s not like any other portion of business that he’s been involved in.”

There have been rumors of the two, Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug, being gay. Today, Rich Homie Quan personally addressed these rumors:

“First and foremost I try not to get into all the comments, because it be so many, but at the same time I see them. If I respond back to that, that’s what they want me to do,”

“Everyone in Atlanta know me and Young Thug is not gay. With Thug it’s different, it’s just his slang. I don’t take nothing of it or nothing. I know I ain’t gay, everybody know I ain’t gay… I get a joke out of it, ’cause it’s just so funny how people will take anything and run with it.”

This beef started on Power 105’s The Breakfast Club radio show when Lil Kim denied she asked K. Michelle to be her childs godmother. This lead to K. Michelle going on the same radio show recently and saying again that Lil Kim did ask her and called Lil Kim “Plastic Penny”. Lil Kim came back at her quick taking a photo of the two of them together and said this about K. Michelle in a caption “insecure pathological lying sick psycho bitch,” “a Looney Tune,” “nobody ass Prozac popping bipolar bitch,” “peasant,” and a  “crazy person.” This was all a part of Lil Kims rant. Then K. Michelle responded on twitter saying very simply “I will not fight with woman who went platinum on PayPal. Sorry for my late response, I was busy winning.” We’ll keep you up to date on any more beef that comes up between these two artists.

It has been a long time since we had any word about Young Jeezy’s gun possession case but that all changed yesterday. TMZ reported that the illegal weapon charges have been thrown out because the D.A. was unable to find any substantial evidence to keep it going.

I’m relieved that the truth has prevailed.”

Eight unheard tracks from rappers Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug have leaked online. All songs are said to be from the upcoming “Tha Tour Part 2” project the Rich Gang is working on.

Rap artist Gunplay is one of the remaining members on MMG to not release an album yet. This is in part because of his name “Gunplay” isn’t very marketable and he is officially changing it on January 1^st to Don Logan. He tweeted this out saying “Yo!! Im officially changing my name to ‘DON LOGAN’ new years day!!!” Hopefully this change is what was needed to finally get an album out in 2015.

After recently meeting up with New York’s Governor Cuomo, Russell had positive comments to make about their discussion: “I’m very excited about what the governor said. I’m going to hold him to it. I have a lot of faith in him. If he said he’s going to issue an executive order, we can certainly count on it, but we’ll make sure it happens.”

Cuomo’s spokeswoman also shared her piece of the conversation involving Jay Z, Governor Cuomo, and Russell Simmons: “Gov. Cuomo and Shawn ‘JAY Z’ Carter had a productive conversation about doing a top to bottom review of the criminal justice system and how we can all work together to pass a reform package that ensures equality in the eyes of the law,”

I like the way he do his thang,” Warren G said. “I like the two youngsters, Rae Sremmurd, I like them, I like the way they get down. I like Rich Homie Quan and the way he get down. I like Drake, ’cause he got a story. Muthafuckas be like, ‘Hey just checkin’ into the women,’ but hey, them the muthafuckas that’s gonna buy your records. And you relatin’ to them, so ain’t nothin’ wrong with that. I like J. Cole. I like YG…And another guy I like, I like Nipsey Hu$$le. I like that one cat Bobby Shmurda, I like the direction he’s moving ’cause it’s like, he’s just beginning, he hasn’t let them know who he really is yet, but he just went in with his story from the beginning because that’s what it is and what it was at this time. That’s what he was going through, so boom. Once he learn, he’s gonna be the guy from New York who’s gonna take off in a minute, watch. I like A$AP Rocky, he a cool cat, he’s doing his thang.”

While rumors are being spread about Dr. Dre returning to the music industry, Bishop Lamont had a few thoughts on the matter: “It’s so crazy when people always try to speak on another person. It’s kind of corny to me. It’s like, ‘Let that man speak for himself.’ So, a better way to redirect that question, ‘cause everybody else wanna speak on shit, if that nigga ain’t talking about it why the fuck you talking about it? Let that nigga fan his own flames for the shit he doing.”

Everyone has been talking about Lil Wayne’s most recent issues with Cash Money Records. They supposedly refused to release Tha Carter V causing Lil Wayne to blast Cash Money on Twitter for the past few weeks. Lil Wayne took it to Twitter today to say:

“YM! That’s it. Nothing else” and he left it at that.

So it seems as though Diddy really did feel some type of way about the ownership of the “0-100” beat. In a video that has been brought to light by TMZ you see Diddy a few months ago on stage saying that Drake stole the beat. This video was shot back in June with Diddy saying “I gave this shit to this nigga, and this nigga stole this shit from me. But at the end of the day, the shit still hard” and then he has his DJ throw on “0-100” then he starts dancing to it.
